Iowa Transportation Commission approves funds for transit, highway plan
The Iowa Transportation Commission approved over 7 million dollars in federal funding for 78 new public transit vehicles across 21 systems and a five year transportation improvement program with about 3.6 billion dollars for highways, rail, aviation and trails. The panel balanced investments, delaying some projects but not removing any from the plan. Paddlers are urged to watch for strainers on rivers and report logjams via the DNR map, and wear life jackets at all times.
